According to the band, "the new album Captivity & Devourment consists of 10 awe-inspiring and ingeniously crafted songs, full of devastating riffs, soaring guitar leads and fist pumping choruses. Heavy, melodic, technical, and groovy: this is creative metal songwriting with one foot in deep in the classics and one eye gazing towards the distant future."

Armageddon first came to life in Sweden in 1997 as a studio project, with cult album Crossing The Rubicon, a sci-fi themed concept album. Two more albums followed, Embrace The Mystery in 2000 and Three in 2003, both featuring different line-ups and different musical directions, Christopher Amott being the sole original member. Armageddon is now resurrected. The band is based out of New York City with a new line-up.
